04CHASE Posted May 5, 2007 Report Posted May 5, 2007 well man what can i say , i hate to do it but i had to . i saw a clean black ss camaro going down the street pacing me so i started talking to him . he had a 98 with the ls1 and a few other goodies. so i said lets run em. got into first and eased into it where i hit 2nd and pulled pretty hard and third i had to slow down for traffic. but after this race makes me thing i do have gears. i pulled over to talk to the guy and told him about my truck . he was like yeah sure. but anyway he seemed pretty cool said he had a small cam and some basic bolt ons. he said his car was running the best it has except his clutch was almost gone. also got some new mods installed. i put in a 160 stat after i got home. i added a few degrees of timing( 4 ) and turned the efan settings down a bit. i also installed a set of hid's but it looks as if one bulb may not be up to par but i will have to see when it gets darker. anyway this car is so much fun i love driving a 6 speed.

montanass Posted May 5, 2007 Report Posted May 5, 2007 fun stuff man. So how close are you to getting the truck going? it should be in the next couple of weeks right? Quote
04CHASE Posted May 5, 2007 Author Report Posted May 5, 2007 truck is a few weeks out yes sir! got a new starter and im just waiting on the intake manifold. on a side note i also got my first loss in the camaro!!! Oh well time for it to go faster. LOL my buddy has a ls6 cts-v and he barely pulled me he has all the stuff i have plus long tubes , no cats and magnaflow. so now a cam and head package is really starting to look good. Quote

brobradh77 Posted May 5, 2007 Report Posted May 5, 2007 good kill I loved the 6 speed in my TA is always felt although not the best opotion for drag racing a 6 speed is a must have for a sportscar just for the fun of shifting gears. Quote

04CHASE Posted May 5, 2007 Author Report Posted May 5, 2007 well if i do decide to do something with this. im going the sleeper route. id like to pop the hood and it look %100 factory. i may be ordering some c6 polished wheels soon for it but havent decided yet. but a heads and cam will require some other good stuff too . so it may be almost as much as a blower. cam, heads, headers, intake manifold, throttle body. if that happens the rear end will act like a 4l65 and probably last a few runs for it meets its end. id also need some stronger parts for the trans. but who knows i have alot of stuff i want but only time will get them.
